Michael Nissley, Chris Clay and Alyssa Conlon

Leading global commercial real estate services firm Colliers International is pleased to announce the expansion of its manufactured housing efforts on a national level. With the additions of Michael Nissley, executive vice president; Chris Clay, senior vice president; and Alyssa Conlon, senior associate, Colliers is committed to serving clients in this expanding field locally, regionally and nationally.

“Manufactured Housing appeals to retirees and lower-income households, which are amoung the fastest-growing demographic segments in North America,” said Nissley. “In addition, an increasing number of pension funds, private equity firms and family offices have more-recently invested in the MHRV asset class as a result of attractive, risk-adjusted returns and upside opportunity.”

“The need for quality, affordable housing is essential for the continued growth of our economy both nationally and here in Florida,” said Ken Krasnow, Executive Managing Director & Market Leader of Colliers International South Florida. “Manufactured Housing is an industry that has gained favor in the face of an ever-widening housing affordability gap.”

Colliers manufactured housing professionals specialize in the acquisition and disposition of manufactured housing and recreational vehicle communities across the United States and Canada. Newly joined professionals Nissley, Clay and Conlon bring a wealth of experience to the firm, including acquisitions, disposition, debt and equity finance, community management, research and property marketing. The team has been involved in more than $2 billion of MHRV transactions and has ranked consistently among the top producers in the industry.

The announcement comes before the 2017 National Congress & Expo, the largest annual trade show for the manufactured and modular housing industries. Held in Las Vegas and presented by the Manufactured Housing Institute (MHI), the conference brings together knowledge and service leaders across multiple facets of the industry, including manufacturers, community owners/managers, suppliers, financial service providers, retailers, insurers and more.
